Ludovica Zullo

Dr. Ludovica Zullo is a postdoctoral researcher at the Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg, affiliated with the Institute for Theoretical Physics and Astrophysics' Computational Quantum Materials group. Her research focuses on realistic material simulations using Density Functional Theory (DFT), particularly investigating 2D and low-dimensional systems, heterostructures, and their electronic, vibrational, and optical properties. She collaborates internationally to explore quantum phenomena in nanoscale systems with applications in next-generation devices.

Education: Ph.D. in Physics (2024, Sorbonne Université & Università di Trento), M.Sc. in Physics (2021, Università di Napoli Federico II), and B.Sc. in Physics (2018, same institution).

Research highlights include studies on twisted bilayer bismuthene spin control, charge density wave behavior in NbSe₂ compounds, and the tunable properties of misfit layer compounds for superconductivity and field-effect transistors. Her work bridges theory and experiment, contributing to emerging technologies in quantum materials.

She is part of the Sangiovanni Group and actively participates in collaborative projects with experimental teams worldwide.
